Apple recently announced official C++ bindings for metal. https://developer.apple.com/metal/cpp/ I was curious if it would be possible to use bindgen on it to autogenerate bindings to metal. If bindings are...
We have `set_label` methods, which use `nsstring_from_str`, which uses auto-release pool. This is inviting for leaks in user code. There is no reason why `set_label` should use any auto-release pools,...
Trying to figure out if I'm missing some neat trick. At first glance it appears that `MTLPixelFormat` and related are unsound. For example, `MTLPixelFormat` is returned by objc [here](https://github.com/gfx-rs/metal-rs/blob/600f865d24adb1f0430f06a5d4194742cf6731ce/src/pipeline/render.rs#L84). If...
